【題目】 Darryl thought his friend Julia had such a cool mother. She would drive Julia and Darryl anywhere they wanted to go: movie theaters, swimming pools, ice cream shops. Darryl's own mother worked in a laboratory all day, doing research. Even on weekends, she read some science books. Daryl loved the way his mom could explain mysterious things about the world and always had interesting stories to share. But sometimes he wished he had a mom who was a little more…well, fun.

One Saturday, Julia and her mom picked up Darryl at his house. They were all going to a big amusement park, Darryl said goodbye to his mom, who was reading.

"Isn't your science project due (預(yù)期的) Monday?" she asked him.

"It's almost done," Darryl said, walking out of the door.

At the amusement park, Julia's mom treated them to popcorn and hamburgers. They all challenged each other to go on the fastest, most exciting rides in the park. They laughed and screamed all day long.

Darryl woke up with a bad headache Sunday morning. He was unhappy at the thought of finishing his science project. He heard his mother making breakfast, the same breakfast she made every Sunday: a vegetable omelet (煎蛋餅) and fresh fruit. Usually Darryl wanted a doughnut for breakfast, but the thought of more junk food made him sick. His mother's healthy cooking was just what he needed after such a loud and busy day.

After he ate, his mother helped him finish his science project. When Julia called later, asking Darryl if he wanted to come by, he said no. Maybe next weekend he would be ready for more fun, but not now.

【題目】 It was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. After all, their ancestors had lived in the same way for centuries.

Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frog's legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own, so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.

This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was to catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn't last long.

The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and, there seemed to be more insects around lately.

The villagers decided that they couldn't just wait to see the crops failing and the children have to use the money earned to buy pesticides (殺蟲劑) and medicines. Soon there was no money left.

Then the people realized what was happening. It was the frog. They hadn't been useless. They had been doing an important job-eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were destroying the crops and spreading diseases.

Now, the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.

【1】From paragraph 1 we learn that the villagers ________.

A.worked very hard for centuriesB.dreamed of having a better life

C.were poor but pleasedD.lived a different life from their ancestors

【2】Why did the villagers agree to sell frogs?

A.The frogs were easy money.B.They needed money to buy medicine.

C.They wanted to please the visitors.D.The frogs made too much noise.

【3】What might be the cause of the children's sickness?

A.The crops didn't do well.B.There were too many insects.

C.The visitors brought in diseases.D.The pesticides were overused.

【4】What can we infer from the last sentence of the passage?

A.Happiness comes from peaceful life in the country.

B.Health is more important than money.

C.The balance between man and nature is important.

D.Good old days will never be forgotten.

【題目】 Have you ever gone to a fast-food restaurant to eat and gotten a kid's meal that came with a toy? Sometimes those meals have different toys for boys and girls —maybe a truck for the boys and a toy bear for the girls. Who decides that boys like to play with trucks and girls like to play with stuffed animals? I know many boys who like stuffed animals and lots of girls who play with trucks. When we decide what someone will like or how they will act just because they are boys or girls, we are stereotyping（形成模式化觀念）.

A stereotype is a group that we put people into. Our human brains do this all the time; it's one of the ways that our brain has learned to deal with the world. We see someone and put that person into a group—for example, the old or the young, a boy or a girl. Is that a bad thing? No, it's not.

One advantage of a stereotype is that it enables us to deal with situations rapidly because we may have had a similar experience before. The use of stereotypes is a major way in which we simplify our social world; since they cut down the amount of processing（i.e. thinking）we have to do when we meet a new person.

Although grouping itself isn't bad, it can be harmful sometimes. It makes us ignore differences between each single person, that is, we usually think all the people in one group are the same but that might not be true.

When we stereotype, we think of a group and give everyone in that group certain characteristics. For example, the fast food restaurant believed that all boys like to play with vehicles and all girls prefer toy animals. They did that based only on whether they were boys or girls.

Stereotypes are problems when beliefs that people have about groups are not necessarily true. Have you ever heard anyone say that "Men are better drivers than women"? Statements like this take a group of people and give all of them the same behaviors or characteristics. I know men who are good drivers, and I know women who are good drivers. It's not fair to judge all people in a group by a stereotype. We need to remember that everyone in the group is an individual who has different abilities, interests, strengths and behaviors.

【1】The example of different toys for boys and girls is mentioned to show that_________.

A.boys and girls prefer different toys

B.boys and girls are treated unfairly

C.people sometimes mix children's likes

D.people have fixed ideas on things

【2】Which of the following stereotypes is useful?

A.Making friends by his appearance.

B.Boys do better in science than girls.

C.Youth easily do unreasonable things.

D.Red signs on the road warn us of danger.

【3】The underlined word “ignore” in Paragraph 4 probably means _________.

A.fail to noticeB.fail to trustC.fail to searchD.fail to face

【4】What does the writer want to tell us about stereotyping?

A.Stereotyping is like a coin which has two sides.

B.It helps our brain learn to deal with similar situations.

C.Judging people by stereotyping them makes things hard.

D.Trying to learn about and form some kinds of them stereotypes.
